Benny Chambers flees her dark past and begins fresh at the University of Virginia, trying to focus on her future instead of dwelling on her past. She is majoring in Business and working at a coffee shop, hoping to one day open up her own bookstore-cafe hybrid business. Although she and Sam aren't friends anymore (and haven't been for a long time), he ends up at UVA with her, playing for their basketball team. 

Benny's darkness is turned on its head when she meets Mickey Sinclair Jr., star small forward on the UVA basketball team and the brightest thing to ever enter Benny's life. Mickey is the Golden Boy and Benny is a social outcast with a small circle of coworkers who she calls her friends: how could a relationship between them ever work? 

....especially when Benny's dark past catches up to her in Virginia? 

Can she and Mickey push through the darkness and rediscover the light they once had? Or will all the danger, secrets, and lies weigh too heavily on their blossoming relationship?

In the second book following "How it was Left" - By the summer before their junior year, Zooey proposes a promise that she and Lila won't let anything stop them from moving on from Borne to pave their own ways for themselves, even if those paths send them to separate places. But when Lila's boyfriend Michael dies tragically at the end of their senior year, those separate places the girls end up in leave Lila remaining in Borne while Zooey heads off for college in Chicago. Not only are the two separate from each other geographically, but through hidden secrets both have vowed to keep from each other about the terrible night of Michael's death. Five years later, Zooey has returned to Borne after finishing school, but unfortunately, experiences in her past 5 years of life have forced their way home with her. Not only that, but being back in such close proximity of Lila reminds her that she still carries a terrible secret about Michael she's sure Lila never knew about. Zooey's arrival back into town leaves Lila feeling much of the same. Riddled with guilt about the parts of her life she has kept secret from Zooey and others, she finds herself pushing away the only person she's truly been able to trust since Michael has been gone: Michael's brother, Hunter. ***CONTENT AND/OR TRIGGER WARNING: This series contains situations pertaining to violence, addiction, childhood trauma, sexual assault/rape, mental/emotional/physical abuse, and tragic accidents & loss of loved ones which may be upsetting for some readers.

[COMPLETE] Genesis Munroe, a virtuoso college freshman has always been the shy type, the good girl, the smart kid who sat in the back of class and practiced classical piano after school. So rooming with a male was something different. She came to college for an experience, a search for something new, but her roommate, James du Bellay doesn't talk directly to her and instead leaves passive-aggressive notes on the door. He puts his stuff on her side of the room, shuts her out of the room, and ignores her. Well, he ignored her until she auditioned for the music team where he was the president. He wanted to deny how good she was, and he didn't care, until he found out he was staring straight at his competition. She had a 5.8 GPA, and she took piano classes for fun, while he took it out of necessity. She was a threat to the palaces he had built at his school and he needed her gone. In the coming day, James finds out that Genesis is in love with his best friend Chad Douglas, a snobbish self-proclaimed alpha male vlogger. So he takes advantage of her obsession. James agrees to teach Genesis how to make Chad fall in love with her, and he gets to watch Chad break her heart so she leaves this school crying (but Genesis doesn't need to know that). He needs her gone. Or he thinks he does. Wait, damn was she always this hot? Is it the short dress he just bought for her, or is it just her? Wait, what was his goal again? Oh right, he needs her gone, pronto. * mature due to cursing and sexual scenes *

No one does gossip like a small town. Nellie Castle is more than ready to leave Shadow Creek, Oklahoma, and its ever-churning rumor mill far behind. She'll finally escape her overprotective father and friend-turned-enemy Sophia McCracken. All she wants to do is get into her dream school and become an investigative journalist - finish the journey her mother started and never got to finish. And maybe while she's at it, take down CreekTalk, the self-regenerating gossip app that won't seem to die. But life has different plans. First, CreekTalk releases a rumor targeting Sophia that has everyone wondering if Nellie's behind it. Then, Sophia goes missing. On the one hand, it's the story of a lifetime for an aspiring journalist and one that is sure to get her into Mizzou. On the other hand, Nellie discovers that Sophia was uncovering things that someone is desperate to keep hidden. So desperate... that they would kill.
